Title Statement The Great Contradiction: The Tragic Side of the American Founding
Imprint Knopf Publishing Group 20251028
Summary, Etc. "The author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Founding Brothers and the National Book Award winner American Sphinx [examines] how America's founders--Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Adams--regarded the issue of slavery as they drafted the Declaration of Independence and Constitution. In this daring and important work, [a] trusted voice on the founding era reckons with the realities and regrets of our founding and the tragedy of its two great failures: the failure to end slavery and the failure to avoid Indian removal"--Provided by publisher.
